Hope
springs eternal in the human breast;
Man never Is, but always To be blest:
The soul, uneasy and confin'd from home,
Rests and expatiates in a life to come.
--Alexander Pope,

DOWN
THE TUBES

This
country is sinking at a divinely controlled rate and will continue such
a decline to the point of desperation, everything that is done by men
to level the state of affairs will fail miserably; this to let arrogant
men know that they are not in charge, and never have been. God can bless
the works of their hands, but He can also bring their exploits to miserable
failure. It is not without reason that scripture points out that the wisdom
of men is as foolishness in the sight of Almighty God.

The
entire nation wallows in an egregiously deep and socially penetrating
economic trough of government making; the jobs picture is depicted as
desperate when in reality millions of technical jobs go unfilled for a
lack of those with the practical skills to fill them. Yet there is no
dearth of sloppily educated and poorly job-equipped mental midgets with
liberal arts degrees, these are of no practical value and in totality
comprise a drag on productive tax-paying citizens by their indolent and
clumsy rolling about in search of cushy jobs, welfare, and government
handouts. The government accommodates these hindrances on society by mandating
extended unemployment benefits and that insurance companies keep them
on their parent's health insurance program unto age 26. Everything the
ignorant and mentally deficient politicians do is double-dipped in dung
and guaranteed to make all that they touch infinitely worse, as we shall
certainly see if this government health fiasco known as Obamacare prevails.

GOD
CONTROLS THE WEATHER

This
nation is suffering through a continuous string of weather related and
heaven sent anomalies that are rapidly destroying what is left of the
tattered and unraveling economy. Grievous storms, unprecedented floods,
devouring wildfires, and now a knockout drought encompassing sixty-five
percent of the nation are unwaveringly destroying the underpinnings of
society and pounding the nation into the dust.

Recently
a person informed me that in view of the drought she and her congregation
had prayed during Sunday morning services for rain. I politely inquired
if throughout the many years of prosperity that had been previously enjoyed
if she and her congregation had offered continuing prayers of thanks and
appreciation for the blessings that God had bestowed upon them. She seemed
somewhat confused and maybe a bit offended by my remark and conveniently
avoided a response to my query by migrating to other topics.

I would
bet that not more than a handful – if that - ever utter a prayer
of thanks following a blessing of a life-giving rain upon parched fields
and dry forests. And they wonder why their crops blister and their forests
burn, what an ungrateful and unthankful bunch we are.

It has
occurred to me that token believers in the Lord attempt to keep Him on
retainer as an expedient utilitarian servant. They put Him into a closet
of darkness and wheel Him out occasionally to pray in desperation that
He deliver them from the dire consequences of their own making. Personally
I think that God ought to direct their pleas for help through the same
foreign channels that are used by the electronic industry to provide technical
assistance to their customers.

THE
GOVERNMENT CANNOT DELIVER MIRACLES

In my
particular area the corporate farmers have been riding high; many have
been made greatly wealthy, largely with the assistance of farm subsidies,
price supports, government crop insurance, and other political government
assists. Taxpayers have, these past sixty years or so, made the agricultural
industry a nearly failsafe institution. Agricultural endeavors cannot
be titled as free market enterprises; they depend to the extreme on government
regulation and financial support via tax revenue monies

The
one thing that the government cannot control, in any way, is the weather;
thus far meddling genetic plant engineers have been able - to a degree
- to render capable continuing production during troublesome weather patterns.
This by their manipulation of the genetic base of the various species,
but the nutritional value of the product produced has been drastically
altered to an extreme downside. When a drought intensifies to a near totality
even these altered species will not survive, and we are rapidly approaching
that dimension of time as I write this message.

The
population of this nation is greedy beyond belief, and most believe within
themselves that it is entirely they who have brought about their economic
well-being. Aside from a little Sunday morning lip service the vast majority
fail to render unto the Creator any acknowledgment of His blessings or
gratitude for His provisions.

SALVATION
NOT FORTHCOMING

The
only action that God will recognize or reward in any meaningful way is
a great spiritual awakening and a national repentance. If a Josiah does
not come onto the national scene and totally obliterate the societal idols
that are worshipped in lieu of Almighty God our days are numbered, and
that number of days dear reader is distressingly few. Make no mistake
about it there will be great agony and great suffering, but the Bible
relates that even in the final days men will look heavenward and curse
Him.

THAT
HORSE IS DEAD

I continue
to hear the interminable and irksome braying that the nation will be saved
by men from a rapidly approaching collapse and that the Constitution will
be restored to the state of being created by the founding fathers. I am
pounded with this wearisome babble every minute of every day and it grates
on the nerves like a screech of nails across a blackboard.

People
that horse is already dead and has been for a century and a half; the
Constitution was spiked through the heart by the uncompromising Hamiltonian
enemies of federalism, interred by Abraham Lincoln amid the killing grounds
of the civil war, and settled in the grave by the dirt poured upon it
by a long succession of dimwitted political centralists. You are now,
and always have been, subject to totalitarian control.

THE
KILLING OF THE CONSTITUTION

If you
do not know James Madison as the father of the U.S. Constitution you should...at
the birth of the nation it was his conceptions in regard to an ascendency
of personal liberties and a sovereignty of the people that prevailed against
all arguments for a monarchy or a totalitarian central government. No
one had a greater role in shaping American Constitutional theory and in
framing the particulars of representative government than James Madison.

I note
that today Madison is greatly ignored. And Thomas Jefferson, Madison's
most erudite ally in the quest for a true and representative Republic,
is currently the victim of the historical revisionists - of both the liberal
progressive and American neo conservative stripe - who deify despotic
tyrants such as Abraham Lincoln and objurgate genuine patriots such as
Thomas Jefferson and others.

The
greatest enemy of a true constitutional government among the fledgling
colonialists was Alexander Hamilton. It was his ideas in regard to an
all powerful and encompassing centralized government that were later seized
upon by Abraham Lincoln in his never-ending quest for totalitarianism.
And this to be able to better serve the industrialists that feathered
his nest.

The
characterization of this ignoble despot as a poor rail splitter who educated
himself by scribbling notes upon a slate is fictional rubbish. He was
in fact a slick and wealthy corporate lawyer of considerable guile, which
he readily employed in behalf of his equally guileful industrial clients.

The
federation and the constitution upon which it rested stood in the way
of his questionable legal maneuvers in behalf of his corporate and industrial
buddies. The act of constituting a political unity out of a number of
separate states so that each member retained the management of its internal
affairs had to be nullified, and Lincoln was the man to accomplish that
job.

Lincoln's
centralist hero Alexander Hamilton was a brash and bold foe of state's
rights and of the people's sovereignty. He plunged ahead to undo the Constitution
in hardihood until Aaron Burr turned out his lights for good. And a fledgling
nation grieved, especially the monarchists of the original colonies.

Abraham
Lincoln had the derring-do and complete lack of integrity to seize upon
the ruse of slavery, and with bloody intensity and a complete lack of
remorse brought to fruition Hamilton's dream of absolutism. This unpitying
and ruthless clod murdered six hundred twenty-five thousand hapless souls
in the process. And then John Wilkes Booth turned out his lights, but
alas for the republic and those six hundred twenty-five thousand souls
it was five years too late. And the nation grieved.

So it
was that less than a hundred years from its birth that the Republic died,
murdered by a despot no less ruthless than a Joseph Stalin or an Adolph
Hitler, and no one grieved. The death of this Republic must be laid at
the feet of greedy and grasping predatory industrialists and the immoral
and corrupt politicians who served their inimical interests.

This
is the truth as you know it, as I know it, and as the revisionist historians
know it. Their belligerency in response to those who expose their prevarications
of fact simply emanates from an exposure of the lies that they promulgate
and the fiction that they employ...

A
NEW HOME A NEW TOMORROW

This
nation will soon perish and the world will crumble beneath demonic rule,
but the Lord lives forever and will rule over the wonderful world of tomorrow.
Grieve not over a loss of the old, celebrate the New.
